RASA VINEYARDS Riesling 'The Composer' 2013

The 2013 ‘The Composer’ Riesling was produced from Geisenheim 110, Geisenheim 198 and Neustadt 90 clones, which were sourced from the Bacchus and Dionysus Vineyards. The Riesling weighs in at 10.9 g/L residual sugar, and the wine was aged in 60% neutral oak fermentation, and 40% stainless steel fermentation. Made in the Alsatian style, this Riesling begins with aromatics of Granny Smith apple, wet rocks, petrol and cantaloupe, as the palate offers flavors of white flowers and green papaya. This finishes extremely long as this is amongst the most compelling Washington Rieslings out there. (Best 2017-2016) - June, 2017 (OB)
